Hankerson went on to state the family wants “a major studio release along the lines of ‘What’s Love Got to Do with It,’ the Tina Turner movie.” The Lifetime movie is based on Chris Farley’s biography Aaliyah: More Than a Woman.

One thing Aaliyah’s family does not play about is tarnishing her legacy, pretty sure they’re going to come with everything they’ve got to put a stop to this…

According to reports via Page Six, the highly controversial relationship between Aaliyah and R. Kelly will be touched on in the Lifetime biopic, thats already making everyone uneasy.

“An upcoming Lifetime movie on the late R&B singer Aaliyah will include details of her controversial relationship with crooner R. Kelly, sources tell Page Six.

The 1990s diva — who was tragically killed in a 2001 plane crash when she was just 22 — was alleged to have secretly, illegally married her mentor Kelly in 1994 when she was 15 and he was 27.

Though the couple denied the union, a marriage certificate was eventually revealed that falsely listed Aaliyah’s age as 18.
The marriage was reportedly annulled by her parents.”

Is it right to detail this alleged inappropriate relationship or should Lifetime let sleeping dogs lie?

Jay and Beyonce are willing to do anything to save their marriage, and sources are revealing that the couple is seeking outside help.

Seeking advice from their good friend Gwyneth Paltrow, the couple has decided to seek couple’s therapy to put their marriage back together.

OK! Magazine reports:

“Supercouple Jay Z, 44, and Beyoncé, 32, just can’t put Solange’s elevator fight behind them, and—on the advice of pal Gwyneth Paltrow—they’ve turned to three-times-a-week counseling to rescue their marriage.

We still don’t know exactly what caused Solange to attack her brother-in-law in that elevator after the Met Ball back in May. But many people believe that the brawl was caused by Solange accusing Jay of being a womanizer, so he’s vowed to change his ways. In front of Bey, he called rumored mistress Rachel Roy to end their relationship: “No more cozy dinners, no more late-night phone calls,” says the source. “He’s even deleted her number from his phone.””

Jay, we hope you get things together quick because we all know how the BeyHive gets down…
